    Content/Overall Organization

    General Suggestions/Comments:
    • There is little use of the practice pages, and there are many instances where questions are displayed on the discover page.
      • Perhaps it would be a good idea to activate the practice pages and include the questions there.
      • Also, the answers given to any questions should not display a top navigation bar, and should display smaller heading.
    • Overall this module is making excellent progress. I was thoroughly impressed as I did not expect such a well-developed and explanatory module. Excellent work!

     

    Page-Specific Suggestions:

    • Prerequisites: Excellent work here. It's wonderful how you have links to concepts that should be known before starting the module.

    Use of Alternate Media

    • When activated, I suggest using the application pages to give examples of how the information learned in the module could be used in real-life situations. There should be links to other sites with brief descriptions.

    HTML Programmer Notes

    • None

    Java Programmer Notes

    • Great interactive applets!

    Graphics Notes

    • There are very few graphics in the module. I suggest making some of the pages with little on them more exciting with graphics. Perhaps you could do something with lists or questions that could benefit from graphic design.

    Platform/Browser-Specific Problems

    • None
